Default Need speedometer options

I recently picked up a custom hardtail bobber, have to change a few things on it but nothing serious. Being in the army you have to meet certain requirements to drive on post. That being said one of those is to have a functional speedometer.

The speed sensor on the transmission mission is capped off. My only question really is what speedometer set up can I use? Cable driven or is thee easiest one that works off the speed sensor that would have been there?

looking to go with a mini speedo I think, any good complete "kits"
